Choose a Neighbourhood Best Suited for You
It is important to research neighbourhoods that are suitable for your lifestyle and personal needs. For example, if you have children some things you may want to consider are if there are schools nearby, bus routes and transportation close to you for your children to access school safely. Across from Aldebaran Homes townhomes in Legacy is a bus route that makes getting to school a much easier and quicker task for your children. The community will have a total of four schools and recently opened a new Highschool! Legend of Legacy aspires to reach out to all families to start their new lifestyle in a community with amenities close to home. The community of Legacy is close to many amenities in proximity to your townhome such as restaurants, health care, shopping and more that are only 5 minutes away! Do you want a home with a view? Live in a community like Vernon and look out onto the beautiful waterfront right in front of your eyes! Whether it be a large open greenspace or a glance onto the Okanagan water in the Vernon landscape, you will be not be disappointed with any of the views that come with Aldebaran’s projects!
Choose the Right Floorplan
Another important step in choosing the right home is knowing which floorplan is right for you. This means deciding if you would prefer a larger square footage home or a smaller, cozy abode to call home. Aldebaran homes offers a variety of different sized floorplans and spaces that target every walk of life. An easier way to find out the appropriate floor plan is to think about your future and ask yourself some questions to finalize your choice. If you have children, are they planning on staying at home for a long time? If so, a bigger space with more rooms might be necessary. Our 1,640 square foot Novella Floorplan in our Legend of Legacy project might be best suited for you! It features 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms making it very accommodating for a family. If you are retiring or are a recent empty nester, you might decide on downsizing to a smaller space that requires less maintenance so that you can age gracefully age with less worry! In this case, one of our smaller townhomes such as the 1,185 square foot Saga or 1,460 square foot Fable floorplan would be ideal. Our townhomes are perfect for downsizers as they require a very low Maintenance lifestyle. Aldebaran Homes offers many floorplans to choose from, so come visit us and we will help you find the right space!
